Martin Panter added the comment: Benjamin changed PEP 7 to allow static inline functions directly in Python 3.6. But later he added program-wide, linkable inline functions in the Python 3.6 code:
2f77a9f0b9d6: add plain “inline” to header file 63ae310b60ff: add “extern inline” stubs in a new file It seems GCC does not support the C99 syntax for these kind of linkable inline functions until 4.3. Some possible fixes or workarounds: 1. Revert the offending functions back to macros 2. Clarify in PEP 7 that we intentionally use linkable C99 (extern) inline functions, therefore compilers like Steven’s and the buildbot’s aren’t supported for 3.6 3. Add some preprocessor magic based on __GNUC_STDC_INLINE__ to detect when the GCC 4.0 reversed meanings of “inline” and “extern inline” have to be used. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28092> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
